Become a Climate Organizer!

Citizen-led community organizing is a powerful way to achieve positive social change and stop runaway climate change. That’s why we've launched Climate Organizers – an initiative to support British Columbians interested in leading a grassroots climate campaign in their local community. 

The best Climate Organizers are people just like you. Your experiences, knowledge, and relationships are the key to building a powerful climate movement in this province. We believe your ideas, stories, and creativity are necessary if we're going to meet the challenge of a generation. No pressure!

Join a campaign in your community. Community campaigns on coal, pipelines, and LNG are springing up around the Salish Sea. We’re working on an interactive map – stay tuned! 

Start your own campaign. Check out our new Organizing Toolkit for everything you need to know about starting your own climate campaign:
